How To Write A Script

The first item on the first page should be these words "fade in".

Scene Heading
A one line description  of the location and the time of day of scene. Known as a slug-line.

Action
The narrative description of the events of a scene, written in present tense. E.g, JOHN walks quickly to his car.

Transition
Film editing instructions.

Characters First Appearance
A description of the character. The name should be CAPPED. E.g, LIAM, a thirty year old journalist with something on his mind.

Dialogue
Lines of speech for each character. Dialogue format is used anytime a character is heard speaking, even for off-screen and voice overs. E.g, JOHN (VOICE OVER) What time is your train?
